Google Maps still tracks my location.

The difference is they no longer store the data on their servers, it's stored on your phone (iPhone/Android)

That way, they can't respond to requests for that data by governments as they don't have it.

I can look on my phone and see all the places I've been today/yesterday, etc

Is it just me or has the amount of data collected changed? Last I checked, the locally stored data just identifies known business locations that have been visited. In the past, when I clicked a business location in the app, it would show when I last visited. Google maps no longer does this. In the past, I could do a hike and see exactly how long I walked and how fast I went. However, this info is no longer collected to this degree.

Arc and its free Arc Mini companion. iOS. Been using it since Facebook eclipsed Moves app. A decade later, it's still not as good as Moves.

I use this free and extremely bare bones app made by a friend: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/max-where/id1579123291. It tracks your location constantly, has a basic viewer, and lets you export to CSV. That’s about it but it’s all I need.

Check out Dawarich, it has an official iOS app and you can use a number of 3rd party mobile apps to track your data and then upload it to server: either ran on your own hardware (FOSS self-hosted) or to the Dawarich Cloud one: https://dawarich.app

Using it on daily basis

I heard about dawarich, open source, didn’t have time to try it though or check the details... https://dawarich.app/

Apple Maps added a Visited Places (beta) feature recently.

Nope, Garmin only tracks your location when you record an activity that uses gps, which is good, frankly.
